Estimating the Manpower, Personnel, and Training Requirements of the Army's Corps Support Weapon System Using the HARDMAN Methodology

Abstract

The HARDMAN methodology is designed to assess the human resource requirements of emerging weapons systems. The goal of this project was to examine the manpower, training and personnel demands of the Army's conceptual Corps Support Weapons System (CSWS), an indirect missile system capable of long- range interdiction missions. The project examined three alternative system configurations and compared them to a composite reference system. Steps 1 through 6 of the methodology were applied. The results of the project indicated that the multiple launch, tracked vehicle alternative was preferred from a manpower, personnel and training standpoint. Further information may be developed for the CSWS Special Task Force as required.
